Suuuuper warm day. We managed to survive the heat on our hike up to and through Glacier Basin and beyond. Now we’re securely ensconced at camp on the Inter Glacier at 7,800 feet. Everyone is in good spirits after a healthy dinner of super ramen and enjoying the evening light.
Looking forward to a day of snow skills and travel to high camp tomorrow!
Cheers,
Devin
